Platform installation and usage
General platform configuration: cryptography¶
The type and parameters of the cryptographic algorithm used in the blockchain are set in the crypto
section of the node configuration file. The crypto
section is used to initialize the cryptography before reading the complete node configuration file.
crypto {
type = WAVES
}
type
– cryptography type; use theWAVES
value for Waves cryptography algorithms. If thewaves-crypto
parameter is present in the configuration file and is set toyes
, then thetype
parameter is assigned theWAVES
value;
Note
The node.waves-crypto
field with yes
and no
values is still supported, but it is not planned to use it in the platform future versions. Instead, the type
field in the crypto
section will be used.
